18
Q

What is the bending of light through the pupil called?

A

19
Q

80% of refraction is produced by ________ _________, which is caused by air/water on the _______. 20% is caused by ________, which is dilation of _______.

A

Refractive power, cornea, accommodation, lens.

20
Q

When ciliary muscle is relaxed, what happens?

A

Lens is flattened, zonular fiber is under tension.

21
Q

What happens when the ciliary muscle is contracted?

A

Lens is rounded, zonular fiber is relaxed.

22
Q

34
Q

What gland produces tears? What is the anatomical name for tear duct?

A

Lacrimal gland. Nasolacrimal gland.

35
Q

What does the saccades to?

A

Necessary to expose fovea to full scene via extraocular muscles.
